“They must see Americans as strange liberators…They watch as we poison their water, as we kill a million acres of their crops. They must weep as the bulldozers roar through their areas…Somehow this madness must cease. We must stop now.”

This is a MUST read article by @smeslami & Zeynab Malakouti!
It reveals how Tehran's calculations re the Straits have changed. Rather than use this leverage to negotiate an end to the war, Tehran is looking to establish a permanent transit fee mechanism and use its leverage to reestablish economic relations with countries who - due to US sanctions - have more or less ended their ties with Iran.

@PaulQB @benigma2017 Sanford is still 65, and he was 48 when his scandal hit. Trump is near death’s door. He doesn’t have time for another comeback. This is it for him.
English
@Mayor_St_Chuck @benigma2017 Republicans never fucking quit. Mark Sanford is trying to make a comeback right now!

Im gonna tell y’all your future right now.
Democrats win the midterms resoundingly.
They then spend the next two years impeaching Trump (but not convicting him) and accomplish absolutely nothing else leading to them losing again in 2028.
Same as it ever was.

I was hoping for something a bit more dramatic than this. Karla’s daughter was tucked away in a Swiss sanatarium. Soleimani’s niece seemed to have spent most of her time in eyebrow threading studio in Beverly Hills.

Niece of Qasem Soleimani, former commander of the IRGC Quds Force who has now been arrested in the United States is identified as Hamideh Soleimani Afshar. Her daughter has also been arrested. Hamideh Soleimani Afshar had a luxury lifestyle in Los Angeles. She praised Khamenei and the IRGC👇

@JonahDispatch @MalcolmNance I think it’s in our NATO partners’ interest to see us humbled so the US realizes we need them and treats them as partners again instead of client states.
English
Sorry, Ari. I just saw your response.
I think it is hilarious that rather than actually respond to my point, you simply opted to double down on your practice of carrying water for Trump like a modern-day Gunga Din.
I think it's great that NATO is spending more on defense. I think Trump can be commended for encouraging it (though the turd-polishing of some folks on this front is often embarrassing. He primarily didn't do it to "save" NATO or even to make it stronger).
But all of this is irrelevant to the point you dodged. If you think Trump has handled the transatlantic alliance well since being elected to his second term, say so. Own it. Don't deflect.
But if that is your position, that's pure idiocy or dishonest spin.
Our NATO allies *should* step up. It would be in their interest. But Trump has made the politics of that near-impossible by threatening Greenland, claiming that our allies didn't really fight in Afghanistan and Iraq, (not Vance's Munich performance, dicking around with Ukraine) etc. Even the far right (outside of Hungary) parties hate Trump now.
Then, when Trump launched this war on Iran he said he didn't need any of their help because we already won.
Now, he's asking for help, but he can't concede error or even ask nicely. So he implies their all cowards who need to muster "delayed courage."
Defend that Ari. Hell simply acknowledge it.
Ari Fleischer@AriFleischer
Sorry Jonah. I actually sat in the room for the first half of the movie. For 24 polite years, Presidents Clinton, Bush and Obama diplomatically asked NATO members to increase defense spending. For 24 years, it was one excuse after another, all focused in Western Europe on how they wish they could spend more, but their social welfare spending priorities wouldn’t let them. In other words, you the US will spend on defense and protect us. Along comes rude Donald Trump. Finally, someone made clear that if Europe kept freeloading the US was done. It took a bill in the China shop to move Europe. Diplomacy failed. Trump prevailed. That’s reality whether you or I like it. NATO self-withered after 75 years. If Spain, England, Italy and France won’t spend what’s necessary to have a real military, it’s time for something new.

🇺🇸🇮🇷 Another ultimatum from Trump to Iran. Will Trump follow through this time:
A) Yes;
B) No?

Not naming names obviously, but shortly after Hegseth’s confirmation I was at the Fox News studios and a personality said to me, “It’s all true, every single thing written about him. We’re all shaking our heads but we can’t say anything.”

@SuggarT @stelzner_n1150 Better to whine before he gets soldiers killed for no reason than after.
English
@stelzner_n1150 Do you liberal bitches whine everyday. Damn man give it a rest.
English
Impeachment proceedings for Pete Hegseth should be initiated immediately. He's an incompetent fool who's going to get American soldiers killed to satisfy his ego. He's completely unhinged.

@jpodhoretz What a fucking straw man argument. Hasan Piker’s views suck, but in no way are those his views. Nice going, John. You’ve sold your soul to Israel. Enjoy the cash.
English
Hasan Piker would likely support Tim Miller’s murder on the grounds that he is gay man with children. And then support the murder of his children, as he supports the murder of mine for being Jews. Nice going, Tim. You’ve sold your soul. Enjoy the cash.

🚨BREAKING: DEMOCRATS ARE FAVORITES TO WIN THE SENATE
English
@denaltb @SpencerHakimian As soon as something that has a 0% chance of happening happens, it’s all over for Dems. What happens when it doesn’t happen?
English
@SpencerHakimian Nonsense! As soon as Trump wins the war, gas will drop down to $2, and it's over for Democrats. LMAO.

@RichardHanania Net worth is not the only measure of one’s worth and productivity. Some people value contributions to society that aren’t measured in dollars.
English
There are over 400K US households with a net worth of over $30 mil.
That’s more than the populations of over two dozen countries!
What an incredible story of innovation and achievement.
Some Europeans make life a bit nicer for the lazy and less productive.
Congrats I guess.
English
@Nezsa777 @RichardHanania It’s good today. When it’s the dollar losing half of its value relative to other currencies 14 years from now because we nuked the petrodollar it won’t be.

My girlfriend had never slapped a man before. So I told her she could slap me. Just to say she did it. First attempt was pathetic. I had to correct her form. After like 7 terrible attempts she got it right. Now she knows how. It was an oddly joyous experience for her. Now she’s my wife.
English
A Japanese restaurant put “face slap” on the menu.
500 yen per slap. Up to five. Extra 100 yen to pick your server.
It started free. Demand forced them to charge.
Onlookers cheered. Women requested multiple rounds. The owner noticed.
So he flipped it: female customers could pay to do the slapping.
American spas charge $200 for a sound bath.
Japan charged $3.50 to hit you.
Both call it stress relief. One of them has a waitlist.

@MrGlobal2025 @MalcolmNance American oil companies would get all the profits anyway, not the taxpayers.

@benigma2017 Just you watch. He won’t make it through 2027. Nixon wasn’t convicted, he resigned. When Trump sees the writing on the wall, he’ll resign before getting convicted, especially at his old age.
English
@intelFromBrian Pretty good bet since he does something very stupid on almost a daily basis.

I expect Trump to do something very stupid in the next day or so.
